- Remove Teflon sealing rings from valve sleeve using small-bladed knife. See Figure . DO NOTΒ scratch sleeve seal grooves. Wrap worm end of sleeve in shop towel and mount in soft-jawed vise. Place Mandrel (T75L-3517-A1) from seal installation kit on sleeve. Install one valve sleeve Teflon ring over mandrel.
- Using Pusher (T75L-3517-A2), rapidly push down on pusher, forcing Teflon ring down mandrel cone and into fourth groove of valve sleeve. Repeat procedure for 3 more rings, adding another Spacer (T75L-3517-A3) under mandrel for each ring to line up with next open groove.
- After all sleeve rings are installed, remove installation kit. Apply light coat of power steering fluid to sleeve and Teflon rings. Reinstall one Spacer (T75L-3517-A3) on input shaft as a pilot for Sizing Tube (T75L-3517-A4). Slide sizing tube carefully over valve sleeve Teflon rings. Ensure rings are not being deformed when tube is slid over rings.
- Allow sizing tube to sit over rings for minimum 5 minutes to help contract Teflon rings. Remove sizing tube. Ensure rings turn freely in grooves. Install sleeve into control valve assembly soon after removing sizing tube.
